Had an amazing experience at 21c! The staff from valets, to front desk, to restaurant and bar staff were extremely friendly and professional. In fact, we're now friends with two of the bartenders - that's an amazing level of service! We had an issue with something in our room and the front desk supervisor took care of it immediately. The room was in need of some refurbishment, but was clean and comfortable. Small things, not anything major, just normal wear and tear. Highly recommend 21c and will book with them again when we're in Lexington.

We absolutely loved this hotel. The room was spacious and well appointed. The staff was amazing, they were all very friendly and helpful. The adjoining Lockbox restaurant is super tasty and has great bartenders! The area has great restaurants and bars all within a few blocks. Public parking is literally less than a block away and its half price of the valet.

The restaurant at the property, Lockbox, has great brunch food. Possibly the best eggs Benedict I've ever had. The front desk staff at check in and the valet at check out were lovely, as were most of my staff we encountered. The rooms are dated, somewhat unclean, and have received the "landlord's special" in many of the details. The gallery seemed empty, and may have been in transition. We've stayed at the 21C in Louisville and I'm Cincinnati- it's all about the details.

Really cool, historic, yet updated hotel. That is.. if you can find it. You have to go by what the picture looks like of the outside to find it because theres no signage. We had to call to see where we were and you also have to park across a busy street and pay to park. There's signs. On the building that advertise the lockbox, and also it says its a bank..which it used to be. The restaurant is VERY limited in its selections. But overall cool, unique place to stay.
